Definitions

  • the present invention relates to edible webs comprising microorganisms, such as bacteria, probiotic bacteria, bacteriophages or viruses.
  • the present invention relates to an edible web having microorganisms, such as bacteria, probiotic bacteria, bacteriophages or viruses printed thereon, e.g. by the use of inkjet printing.
  • probiotics are: "Live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host”. Lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria are the most common types of microbes used as probiotics; but certain yeasts and bacilli may also be helpful. Probiotics are commonly consumed as part of fermented foods with specially added active live cultures; such as in yogurt, soy yogurt, or as dietary supplements.
  • probiotics confer their effect by being viable during intake, it may be an obstacle to obtain high enough concentrations of viable probiotics (cell forming units; CFU), which are stable over a longer period of time, for example when stored before consumption.
  • CFU cell forming units
  • probiotics When stored in a liquid state, such as in yoghurt, probiotics may not be viable for long periods of time. In addition, when stored in a liquid state it may be necessary to keep the products cooled which may be problematic and costly and due to the presence of liquid in the product it requires more room for storage. When stored in a dry state it may be difficult to control the exact concentration (CFU) of the probiotics.
  • CFU exact concentration
  • Merrin et al. discloses printing of different strain of genetically modified E . coli bacteria on flat surfaces such as glass plates, agar plates and nitrocellulose sheets using inkjet printers ( Merrin et al.
